Where is reenactment 2014

Messagede DerekTaylor » Sam Mai 24, 2014 12:35 pm

Could you tell me please where will the re-enactment of the Battle of Bouvines be held in July this year for the 800th anniversary? I wish to visit as a spectator. I have seen a reference to Chateau d'Argy in Indre, but that is many miles from Bouvines itself. So I'm puzzled.

Hello ! There are two events :
- one organized by the town of Bouvines : no serious reenactment but several conferences and meetings, visits, etc
- one (our) which is only the battle reenactment without any visitors, just reenactors, at Argy.

We tried to merge the two events, but no way to keep a good historical level if we do. So we choose to make another event.

Many thanks. Pity your re enactment isn't in the place where the battle was fought. But good luck. Hope it goes well.

Hi again. I just wondered if there had been any change of mind about admitting spectators to the Bouvines reenactment. And I wondered what the problem was. Is it a lack of space? I'm sure it would be very popular event.

Sure it would be very popular ... but in France organizing events with spectators is very heavy because it becomes a public event. And this is not our policy.
